  • FIGS. 6A to 6C are schematic cross-sectional views sequentially illustrating a method of fabricating the touch screen panel shown in FIG. 4 using a dropping technique.
  • first and second substrates 1 and 2 are prepared.
  • the first substrate 1 includes first sensing patterns 12 , first dummy patterns DX and metal patterns 15
  • the second substrate 2 includes second sensing patterns 14 and second dummy patterns DY.
  • a sealant 17 is formed around the outer perimeter of the first or second substrate 1 or 2 as shown in FIG. 7B .
  • the sealant 17 is formed around an outer perimeter of the second substrate 2 .
  • a filler material 16 is dropped into and used to fill the space surrounded by the sealant 17 on the inner surface of the second substrate 2 using a dropper 40 .
  • the first and second substrates 1 and 2 are aligned together and then assembled while allowing the inner surface of the second substrate 2 , filled with the filler material 16 , to face the first substrate 1 .
  • the first and second substrates 1 and 2 are joined together by the sealant 17 .
  • the process is performed under vacuum. That is, in the embodiment of FIGS. 6A to 6C , the touch screen panel is fabricated using a vacuum dropping technique.
  • the touch screen panel is fabricated using the vacuum dropping technique, thereby minimizing or reducing production of air bubbles and inflow of foreign matters in the process of filling the filler material 16 between the first and second substrates 1 and 2 .
